Everun Note


The search is over…

I have found the premium netbook. To everyones surprise it’s not made by HP or Dell. It’s not even an American Company. It’s the Everun Note.

Yes, ladies and gentlemen…there are some compromises!

This little devil packs a 7″ screen, which may be a little outdated for those of us staying current with the whole ultraportable world. However, it has got to be the smallest netbook out there with all the features. No more HD playback woes!

The Everun Note sports a 1.2 GHz AMD Turion Dual Core 64 bit capable processor. Yes kids, you read it! DUAL CORE 64 Bit! There are options of SSDs and HDD of up to 80GB. 1GB RAM Standard and…check this out!, 128MB of Video Ram (ATI RS690E)! Now you can play some HD video and play some of your classic games. It also comes with a stock Touchscreen so all you modders out there will be quite happy. A 1.3 MP webcam making videocalls quite possible. 2 USB ports, 1VGA, 1USB Mini, Bluetooth…the works!

There are no OS options and Linux as an OS.

Compromises…

1. Battery Life is reported to be “Up to three hours”, making it 2 hours in the real world.
2. Optical Mouse (although you do have touchscreen and USB ports).
3. Seven (7″) screen, but thats the beauty of it!
4. Price (Starts at over $800 US).
5. Windows XP (It could probably run Vista fine if RAM is upgraded, or Windows 7 for that matter).

If you can get past these compromises and have an incredible need of something small and yet capable of delivering, be sure to check out the Raon Digital Everun Note at their website, http://www.raondigital.com/fnt_english/evn01.asp.


UMPC Portal has made a FULL Review of this little toy, claiming it’s able to run Unreal Tournament 2003, Half Life and other intensive applications. Real the full review here…
